Michelle Obama wears Jason Wu to the inauguration balls again

I like it so much this article! I read about thePresident of United States Barak Obama and her wife Michelle Obama. The article its about was wearing  Michelle Obama and the President in the inaguration day.

She wore a beatifull ruby- colored dress which have a good combination with her skin. Obama wore a withe tie with his smoking.

Also, the article mentioned the famous designers such as ‘’Kate Spade New York’’.  The company feel proud that important persons in United States wore their clothes, and have been a part of historic moment.  I think that if anyone know this company, tomorrow probably will be double expensive because the president bought there.

In my opinion, Michelle looks beautiful, and she choose an elegant choice, and her children looks fabulous.

I like it so much Marketing, and its interesting know how the companys think when someone important such as leader buy in their store.

The glaciers in South America is the topic of the next article that I selected this weak. The glaciers are important because it provide water for the live. My country is in the chain of Andes Mountains, where every year we can see less snow cause for the melting.  That was the reason that drives to me select this article to share in class.

The Andes glaciers in South America are suffering a high rate of melting and is increased every year.
It is well know the climate change have been affected the glaciers from many years ago as well as the lack of water from the rain are every time shorter.

The scientist are concern about the glaciers locate in low altitude because it is melting more easily and in few years it could disappear.  It means that the inhabitants in countries around the glaciers could be in troubles for their activities like in generation of hydropower, agriculture and the water for human consumption. As an example that is happen now in Bolivia,  a highest ski run mountain that have been visited for tourist for years,  is very close to disappear in the next years.

Hello,

today I listened an article in CNN

www. cnnstudentsnews. com  (Jan 18, 2013)

The topis is about Obama's inaguration on Monday 21th.

Is very interesting the date. It is a holidays Martin Luther Kings birthdays. Who was a leader human and civil rights in USA. It is a symbolic day for the democracy in this country for both reasons.

In many countries that event is important, but here is a ceremonial event, I think so. With the cold weather and snows, but the preparatives are going to. Over 800.000 people expected, cited web site. Reports invited visitors to post their photos in facebook! The communications experts will be a additional resources.

The organization is a strategic element. And the safe of presidents is fundamental. The military aids, the security plans, the buildings was revise before, SWAT will be present there and a lot of secutity teams like FBI and others are ready for that inauguration. Every point of Parade are monitoring. The crucial point is in a exposition of Obama when he walking around the National  Mall. Only they have faith: all is right!

Are a trditions there? Yes. They have 5 traditions.

1. Inaugural Procession: back to G. Washington.
2. The oath presidential.
3. The inaugural speech. No rules are in this part.
4. The inaugural parade. The president, vicepresidente and your wives walks at the presidential avenue.
5. The inaugural balls and party since 1997.

The video shows other inagurations 100 years ago and their traditions. That visual trip moves differents emotions, I emphatize with the american feelings about your nation or democracy, and how much take care it with mistakes and rights acts. More than in my country, have political crisis, right now.

It is so solemn event. It express values and goals. Should be a hard rule be president? how many things can be do?

I choose this article for relevant date to USA. One values here is freedom and the inaguration represents democracy goverment has power and is a way to espress freedom. That event is very formal and people can be watch in their TV like a public expression of this.

 The fashion week!

I like this article because  it is about the fashion week in New York City,  because ever since i was a little girl i have really liked fashion and the different designers. I love to see the different types of clothes.

This article is about the history of how fashion week started.  In 1943 during world war II .

Americans current go to Paris so they put Press week to bring the fashion to New York. Over the years in 1994 the fashion week was at Bryant Park and was a invitation only for example designers, fashion industrys , celebrities and the press. In 2009 because of the bad economy they moved for Bryant park to smaller place.

They started using the internet making the codt of fashion week go down because designers cut shair their collections online.

"New water lows for Great Lakes could drain local economies" 

Why a I choose this article? 

This article like to me because I realized how the water is important not only for the live,  but also  for the industries, economy and recreation. 

Summation of the important points. 

Water in the Great Lakes is formed by the rivers Michigan and Huron that have been suffered low levels from the last 13 years. The cause of the low level come from little precipitation, low snow melt and evaporation.  

The little rain that counter the hot summer is not enough to avoid the evaporation of the water, that is  sucked from the lakes in a large amount in comparison with the rain that felt. 

The little snow that felt last winter and the melting last spring did not bring enough water,  that usually arise 1 foot compared with 4 inches last time. 

The experts said that low leveI have seen before and it is part of cycle with records from the 60's, 70's and 80's. 

Is incredible how the low levels are affecting industries, communities that depend of tourism and fishing boats.  

Most of the big ships that carry goods have to been forced to lighten the load that normal carry because it can ground in the shallow harbors when they unload.  Fishing boats can not reached the harbor because large amount of sediments that must be removed to keep clean the harbors and the congress have to approve the budge to do it. Some harbors have been forced to close for the bad conditions and others are changing to trucks and rail for bring goods. 

Many people usually are coming to the Great Lakes from the different States of the country every year for fishing. The government have stopped fishing because the salmon have been trapped in the mud for the low levels of water and the authorities must act to protect the population of fishes. This situation affect the local business that sell their products to the tourist that come on summer. 

As a part of cycle some people believe that it could be in normal conditions in a few years. 

People from the article. 

Owners of the cargo ships. 

Joss Mills, City manager of Michigan. 

Mark Breederland, an educator with Michigan SeaGrant. 

Keith Kompoltowicz, chief of watershed hydrology for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in Detroit.

Mardi Grass

Hello everybody!  I want to share with all of you about the interesting article that I read. 

First of all, I choose this article because I am really interested about all related to Mardi Gras or Carnival Season, and I feel happy thanks to I am here in New Orleans, so I will can explore, learn about the culture, and finally feel what really is. 

Some people said that the first Mardi Gras celebration was on March 3, 1699. However, the first recorder New Orleans Carnival parade was in 1827 when a group of yong people, students specifically, danced thuroght the streets. 

According to the article, Mardi Grass meaning that you can do everything you want during the Tuesday because is the last day before Ash Wednesday, is you last chance to eat fatty food, do crazy things, drink alcohol, drunk  etc. , and maybe for this reason is most common eat the delicious King Cake only for this season. On thing really interesting is the meaning of the colors purple, green and gold: they symbolize power, justice and faith.

 In summary, Mardi Grass is the culmination of it all, because after that you will start a new season, a religious season (easter).  If you want you can go with all your family because most parades are family-friedly, but with discretion. For people who live far, others cities across Lousina such as Baton Rouge,  celebrate Mardi Gras too.
